After Breaking Off the Engagement, I Started Pursuing My Master-Chapter 26 - Cant Help Myself
Chapter 26: Can’t Help Myself
“Who is it?”
“It’s me, Jiang Huai.”
Wen Wanwan’s body trembled, and the next moment she stood up from the pavilion and ran to the gate, forgetting to shield herself from the rain with spiritual energy. Jiang Huai stood outside the courtyard with an umbrella, and when he saw her, he was momentarily stunned.
Because Wen Wanwan was only wearing a pale blue robe, the robe was a strappy style, excessively short, barely covering her chest, and the hem only reached the root of her thighs. This was typically worn by women underneath their clothes. Wen Wanwan, drenched in the downpour, made the soft white fabric cling to her body, nearly transparent under the light, her legs glistening with raindrops like pearls.
“Senior Brother Jiang Huai…”
Wen Wanwan began, suddenly realizing the astonishment in Jiang Huai’s eyes, and the next moment she looked down, reacting by quickly covering her chest with her hands,
“I, I, I…”
“Maybe you should change into some clothes first?”
Fortunately, Jiang Huai quickly recovered, gently closing his eyes to spare the young girl any embarrassment.
Wen Wanwan instinctively turned around, but after taking a step, she stopped, slowly turning back, her voice trembling softly,
“What did Senior Brother Jiang Huai come for?”
“I was thinking you might have run out of the medicine powder from last time, so I came to bring you some more. How severe is your injury today?”
“It’s not too bad… just a little sore. Could I trouble Senior Brother Jiang Huai to apply the medicine for me?”
“It’s no trouble at all.”
“Then… Wanwan won’t change clothes first.”
Wen Wanwan stepped closer to Jiang Huai, who opened his eyes to see the young girl standing in the light of the firefly stones, dazzling him for a moment.
Jiang Huai struggled to look away, coming to her side to hold the umbrella, and softly said, “Junior Sister Wanwan.”
“Hmm?”
“Aren’t you worried that Senior Brother Jiang Huai might be a bad person?”
“Wanwan trusts Senior Brother Jiang Huai.”
“And what if your trust is misplaced?”
“Then… Wanwan won’t lose out.”
Jiang Huai couldn’t help but laugh and cry at her response, walking with her to the pavilion. Wen Wanwan sat obediently on the stone chair, and Jiang Huai took out the medicine powder. Her wounds were on her shoulder and thigh. He first faced Wen Wanwan, gently sprinkling the powder on her shoulder. Wen Wanwan’s eyes quietly watched his lashes, her cheeks reddening bit by bit.
The sound of raindrops hitting the pavilion was noisy, but Wen Wanwan’s heart seemed to calm down at that moment. She looked into Jiang Huai’s serious eyes, which seemed incredibly clear. Staring into those eyes, she felt inexplicably at peace.
Jiang Huai quickly finished applying the medicine to her shoulder and then sat beside Wen Wanwan, looking at the wound on her leg. The scar was on her right thigh. Wen Wanwan hesitated for a moment, then lifted her legs, placing her thighs, barely covered by the pale blue robe, onto Jiang Huai’s lap.
So long.
Jiang Huai felt a bit dizzy for a moment, his gaze traveling from her thigh to her ankle, then to her slightly curled toes.
Could they be more exquisite?
After several seconds, he heard Wen Wanwan’s soft call,
“Senior Brother Jiang Huai…?”
“Y-yes.”
Jiang Huai came back to his senses, moving his gaze to Wen Wanwan’s face. Now it was his turn to feel embarrassed, but according to the principle that if I’m not embarrassed, then it’s someone else’s problem, Jiang Huai quickly justified to himself,
“Junior Sister Wanwan’s legs are so pretty, I got distracted.”
Wen Wanwan’s hands suddenly didn’t know where to rest, her cheeks burning hot as if to evaporate all the steam. She instinctively tensed her legs, but her eyes were slightly bright,
“Really?”
“Yeah, of course it’s true.”
Jiang Huai said, taking out the medicine powder and carefully sprinkling it on her wound. When his fingertips lightly brushed her skin, the soft sensation was just right.
Ding——————
【Stop pretending, just touch if you want to.】
【Your kindness towards Wen Wanwan has turned her gratitude into infatuation. A woman lost in the illusion of love is blind, and she will not refuse any of your requests now. Take the opportunity to touch her thighs until her cheeks flush and her body goes limp.】
【Reward: low-grade experience scroll*1.】
Damn it.
Jiang Huai was about to dismiss the sudden task notification with his mind when he inadvertently caught sight of Wen Wanwan’s eyes. At that moment, the obedient girl sat on the stone stool, her long legs resting on his lap, her hands carefully placed to one side, her eyes shy and soft.
Truly, lust is the root of all evil.
Jiang Huai’s system always issued these borderline lewd tasks. Just as he was about to say that the medicine was applied and she could put her legs down, Wen Wanwan’s toes lifted slightly. Since she dared not look at Jiang Huai, she could only look at her own toes. Her white toes gently stretched out, and she whispered,
“If Senior Brother Jiang Huai likes them… do you want to touch?”
“Heh, am I that kind of person?”
Jiang Huai’s response was righteous, but as Wen Wanwan looked down, Jiang Huai’s hand was already resting on her thigh.
“My hand moved on its own…”
Jiang Huai’s eyes twitched slightly, about to move his hand away, but Wen Wanwan’s hand gently caught his wrist, whispering, “It’s okay.”
She added magnets!
Jiang Huai couldn’t pull his hand away, but he found a serious reason for himself.
“I’ll massage your leg to promote blood circulation and help with the injury recovery.”
Wen Wanwan looked down at her legs, which had already returned to their original state, and nodded obediently.
“Okay.”
So, they didn’t speak again. Outside the pavilion, the rain poured down, and inside, the girl’s legs, which were initially a bit chilly, gradually became hot and flushed. Jiang Huai was slowly overwhelmed by the small greed in his heart, no longer satisfied with just touching the girl’s thighs. His fingertips gradually slid to her slender calves and delicate ankles, eventually gently pinching her feet.
Wen Wanwan let out a soft “Ah.”
“It tickles…” Wen Wanwan said softly.
“Can I touch?”
Wen Wanwan nodded lightly, turning her face away, unable to look at Jiang Huai any longer. Her soft, white feet gradually became Jiang Huai’s plaything as he held and played with them for a while before reluctantly letting go,
“Alright.”
“Senior Brother Jiang Huai’s hands were quite cold just now,” Wen Wanwan said softly.
“Hmm?”
Wen Wanwan carefully grabbed his other hand and placed it on her leg, then slowly spread her legs apart. The next second, Jiang Huai’s hand was trapped by the little crab, the warm, soft flesh tightly enveloping his hand. Wen Wanwan, with her head down, muttered softly.
“Wanwan will warm up Senior Brother Jiang Huai’s hand.”
It’s over.
Indeed, after making a small mistake, one is prone to make a bigger one. If he had pushed Wen Wanwan away when she hugged him that day, would she still have the courage she has now?
“It’s so warm,” Jiang Huai muttered softly.
Wen Wanwan’s cheeks flushed even redder, and she found herself at a loss for words. After a while, she finally said in a soft voice,
“It’s so cold outside, Jiang Huai Senior Brother… would you like to come inside and sit for a while?”
“I… better not. Qingyu is waiting for me to come back.”
In reality, Luo Qingyu had already been coaxed to sleep.
Jiang Huai didn’t trust himself to have the willpower to leave Wen Wanwan’s boudoir once he entered. He knew all too well where his weaknesses lay.
“Wanwan… my body feels so soft, I don’t have the strength to go back to my room.”
Wen Wanwan mustered her courage and looked at Jiang Huai, who hesitated for a moment before saying,
“Then… should I carry you?”
“Mhm.”
Thus, Wen Wanwan found herself in Jiang Huai’s arms. He didn’t know where to place his hands, as it seemed that everywhere was softness. Wen Wanwan slightly lifted her long legs, clamping them around Jiang Huai tightly, her body pressed against his chest, making it almost hard for him to breathe. This was hardly the appearance of someone who was weak and powerless.
But Jiang Huai didn’t call her out on it, just like she didn’t call him out on his offer to massage her legs to improve circulation and dispel stasis.
Wen Wanwan’s cheek rested against Jiang Huai’s chest, and he gently embraced her back, walking towards her room. It was only a dozen steps away, but to Jiang Huai, it felt incredibly long.
To Wen Wanwan, however, the distance felt so short, too short. In a daze, after hearing his heartbeat a few times, Jiang Huai had already carried her to the door.
“Go to sleep early,” Jiang Huai said softly, setting Wen Wanwan down.
She stood before him, knowing she should return to her room. A quiet sense of loss welled up inside her as she looked into Jiang Huai’s eyes, her gaze rippling like autumn waters.
“Jiang Huai Senior Brother…”

“Mhm?”
Wen Wanwan wanted to ask when he would come to her courtyard again. But she didn’t have the courage to voice the question, fearing rejection and an answer she didn’t want to hear.
“Next time… can you massage me again?”
Wen Wanwan asked with flushed cheeks, her voice soft.
“That… depends on fate, doesn’t it?”
How could Jiang Huai dare to make a promise? The ambiguous emotions were already nearing the boundary of propriety. He glanced at Wen Wanwan and realized her downcast eyes were filled with sadness.
“Mhm,” Wen Wanwan responded softly, her voice seemingly holding back a sob.
The next second, she was gently embraced by Jiang Huai.
“However, if you’re bored on a normal day, you can come to my courtyard, and I’ll teach you swordsmanship,” Jiang Huai’s hand gently stroked the girl’s black hair, his voice softening.
“Really?” she asked.
“Mhm, just come,” Jiang Huai gently patted her back, as if comforting a child.
Wen Wanwan’s body pressed tightly against him, feeling so soft and seemingly easy to topple.
“Alright, alright, go to sleep early. I need to go back to sleep too.”
“Mhm.”
Wen Wanwan finally carefully extricated herself from Jiang Huai’s embrace and walked back into her room. Jiang Huai watched as she gently closed the door. After the door was completely shut, Jiang Huai finally let out a sigh of relief.
The storm had stopped.
He opened his umbrella and, after leaving the courtyard, gently closed the courtyard door for her. On the way back to the mountain, Jiang Huai looked at the dark mountain shadows in the distance. Back in his courtyard, he sat in the pavilion, watching the light from the firefly stones and let out a soft sigh.
Damn it, Jiang Huai Jr., damn it!
This time he couldn’t control his hands that wanted to touch her legs; would he next be unable to control his mouth?
